Show HN: An experimental, modern package manager for operating systems
That's quite the sparse list of packages: https://github.com/lodosgroup/package-builds/tree/linux-amd6... They also don't seem to think this is going to catch on and thus haven't shared the directory list as homebrew-core recently had to do: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/tree/master/Formul...
There are already SO MANY build-from-source specifications it is insaneo to start a new project without the ability to at least import from any one of them, especially since it seems this toy goes with the "shell script and good luck" approach https://github.com/lodosgroup/package-builds/blob/linux-amd6... (not even having the forethought to provide a download helper and/or turn on `curl -f` because the network is always reliable and servers never 503 amirite?)

GitHub Disabled the Xz Repo
Is disabling the compromised repo the typical GitHub policy? My concern is there are monorepos used by package managers, like brew, that are a collection of thousands of projects [1]. These monorepos seem like a prime target for attack and if GitHub disables one because a malicious commit was merged then you've taken down an entire ecosystem.

Backdoor in upstream xz/liblzma leading to SSH server compromise
> Correct. Though we do not appear to be affected, this revert was done out of an abundance of caution.

Pyenv – lets you easily switch between multiple versions of Python
> right, but now you know even less about your setup when you some roadblock
This is the same with a binary though. And with homebrew, you can't follow patches or flags used or if they change.

Cowsay
definitely be careful about using fortune in a corporate environment or public space if you don't know what dat files you are using or you might just get an extremely unwelcome surprise.
I was practicing a presentation and used to use "fortune" all the time. I forget exactly what it output but I remember being absolutely mortified about what could have happened if that had popped up during an internal company tech talk.
Kudos to brew for keeping unsuspecting people safe

Ask HN: Trouble with a Stargate
I'm sorry to be asking this as I find it a bit silly, but it's blocking my PR [3], so could a few of you star the project on Github [1] to get my PR to run?
